Month Of Change

(Read More...)

Come September {} September contest free style{}

Very soothing change over
like a gal switches off
and
dresses into her gown
the night has come

September breeze
not much yet to freeze,

we all will see the moving away
of the sun
now on the Equator on September 21,(twentyone)
then as the sun distances from us
leaves fly about in hopeful trust
ere they lay about the ground,
in colors so profound,
trees bare down
but gradually,
till they bare like me
a baldy

then as the sun has gone down south
far enough
the summer has vanished
and
Autumn leaves are also banished

then you say 'tis fall
this has come after all,
it had to as it has been
many thousands
nay millions,
nay billion years
humanity has been at sea

just enjoy this fall
as the ones you have seen
'tis the coming of autumn
that has yet to be seen,

let green leaves now look like colored flowers
welcome autumn please
The beauty of space
is now lent by bare trees
we can through the far distance
now see....

I thought the rhymes was profound and read rather well. I did paused a few times where I stumble to keep the flow in my animated reading voice. But the poem was nice I liked the juxtaposition, new word I learn from Stan, summer like the gal that switches off and change and autumn is her undressing.

Stumbled but did not fall

What a lovely poem lovedly you've written for me in your comment.
It's was the baldy bc my brain won't read it right lol
My mind saying badly instead of baldy.
Now I get it after all. The trees are bald as your head
I like that juxtaposition

take care of your eyes

I once had a very old friend
could go to heaven any moment
i said use your glasses and read
he said foolish guy
how will I see God
when I go to heaven
and here following you silly guy
i go blind
so i said keep it in mind
and also mention to god
men of my kind
who with open eyes
are totally BLIND!

as is over
